Hi Andrew,

You have advised me to change the compatibility to "marvell,mv88e6190".
The problem is that my linux version is Xilinx 4.4.0 (2016.2) - it contains mv88e6xxx driver files that do not support 6190 (though they do support 6085) and the driver has slightly different file tree.
The closest Xilinx linux version that support this driver is 4.10.

The thing is, I don't want to upgrade my linux version, just patch this driver module.
Is it possible to do it in a simple way (windows like :) )?

Regards,
Michael

Hi Michael

Documentation/devicetree/binding/net/dsa/marvell.txt says:

Required properties:
- compatible            : Should be one of "marvell,mv88e6085" or
                          "marvell,mv88e6190"

It could be better documented, but in this case, marvell,mv88e6190 is what you want.

     Andrew
